Who Owns the Moon?
Within the next ten years, the U. S., China, Israel, and a crowd of private companies plan to set up camp on the moon. So if and when they plant a flag, does that give them property rights?
A NASA working group hosted a discussion this week to ask: Who owns the moon? The answer, of course, is no use. The Outer Space Treaty, the international signed by more than 100 countries, states that the moon and other celestial bodies (天體) are the province of all mankind. No doubt that would annoy all of the people throughout the ages, like monks from the Middle Ages, who have tried to claim the moon was theirs.
But ownership is different from property rights. People who rent apartments, for example, don’t own where they live, but they still hold rights. So with all of the upcoming missions (派遣團(tuán)) to visit the moon and beyond, space industry thought leaders are seriously asking themselves how to deal with a potential land rush.
“ This is a very relevant discussion right now. We’ve got this wave of new lunar missions from around the world,” said William Marshall, a scientist in the small-spacecraft office at NASA, but who spoke this week at an event hosted by NASA’s Co Lab, a collaborative(協(xié)力完成的) public-private working group. He was speaking from his personal interest and not on behalf of the agency.
To be sure, the United States aims to send astronauts back to the moon by as early as 2015, in a mission that would include a long-term settlement. China and Israel, among others, are also working on lunar projects. And for the first time, several private groups are building spacecraft to land on the moon in an attempt to win millions of dollars in the Google Lunar X Prize. Some participants say that they plan to gain some property rights in the mission.
小題1:In the passage the writer seems to be worrying that ________.
A.the US will live on the moon forever
B.the moon will not be able to hold all mankind
C.the potential land rush will become more and more frequent
D.no one can answer the question “ Who owns the moon?”
小題2:“ The Google Lunar X Prize” aims to ________.
A.encourage private groups to land on the moon
B.help NASA host a discussion about land rush on the moon
C.help some developing countries to complete their lunar projects
D.reward some countries or private groups which haven’t stepped on the moon
小題3:The underlined word “ that” in the first paragraph refers to ________.
A.the Outer Space Treaty
B.if and when they plant a flag
C.the NASA working group
D.monks from the Middle Ages
小題4:What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A.The U. S. astronauts will live on the moon for longer time.
B.Many countries and private groups plan to go to the moon.
C.Why some private groups wish to land on the moon.
D.It is easy to gain some property rights on the moon.
小題5:We can infer from the passage that ________.
A.it’s a waste of time to work on the lunar project
B.“ The Outer Space Treaty” forbids private groups to land on the moon
C.a(chǎn)ll mankind has the right to land on the moon
D.whenever you come to the moon, you’ll get some property rights on it

Historically, the term “fair trade” has meant many things. The Fair Trade League was  1 in Britain in 1881 to restrict 2  from foreign countries.

This is how it works: In  12  for being paid a guaranteed price and meeting “agreed labor and environmental standards” (minimum wages, no farm chemicals ), poor-country farming cooperatives(合作社) receive a FAIRTRADE mark for their products, given 13  by the FAIRTRADE Labeling Organization.

BEIJING , March 9 --- The central government will require an additional three years of use for official vehicles for ministers and governors to reduce the costs of purchasing new cars, media have reported.
The new rule has been applied among all Party and government departments nationwide, the Beijing News reported on Tuesday. The new rule has not yet been made public, said Li, a member of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference National Committee.
Under the old rules, the cars used by minister-level officials could be replaced as often as every five years, Li said. These officials will also keep the same cars when they assume new posts, he added.
The new rule also reiterated(重申) that officials ranking below minister-or-governor-levels should not be allocated cars. The cars possessed by their departments should be used on demand.
“It violates the rules for lower-ranking --- even county-level-officials to be allocated cars,” Li said.
Purchases of vehicles for official use have been heavily investigated, as they account for a large expenditure (花費(fèi)) of public funds every year.
A survey on the Web news www.ifeng.com found 64 percent of respondents believed the new rule will be difficult to carry out because it is related to officials’ interests.
“Local government departments had halted(中斷) approvals for requests for such vehicles and had started to work on new quotas(指標(biāo)) under the new rules,” Li said. “The future reform of official vehicle use will introduce market mechanisms and monetization.”
Premier Wen Jiabao said in the annual government work report on Saturday that expenditures on such vehicles will not increase in 2011 compared with a year ago.
Beijing’s standing deputy mayor Ji Lin last week said the municipal (市政的) government will release the number of vehicles for official use in the capital as early as at the end of this month.
Earlier this month, the Minister of Finance had published a rule regulating the budgets for such vehicles.
小題1:What is the purpose of the new rule allocating vehicles among officials?
A.To promote a low-carbon lifestyle.
B.To cut down the present huge expenditures of purchasing cars.
C.To make good use of budgets for official cars.
D.To solve the problem of severe traffic jam.
小題2:How often could the cars used by minister-level officials be replaced according to the new rule?
A.Every 3 years.B.Every 5 years.C.Every 8 years.D.Every 10 years.
小題3:What about the officials ranking below minister-or-governor levels in terms of official vehicles?
A.They can still possess special cars.
B.They can use their own private cars.
C.They can use cars whenever officially necessary.
D.They can be allocated second-hand cars.
小題4:What is the public’s attitude toward the new rule’s fulfillment?
A.Uncertain.B.Optimistic.C.Indifferent.D.Passive
小題5:From the passage, we can infer that_________.
A.the government is determined to carry out the new rule
B.the new rule has not yet been made public
C.the new rule will benefit official’s interest
D.the new rule is applied to minister-level officials

TANG Dynasty writer Du Mu once wrote in a poem titled Qingming: "The ceaseless drizzle drips all the dismal day; So broken-hearted fares the traveler on the way.Where can a wine house be found to drown his sadness ?A cowherd points to Almond Flower (Xing Hua) Village in the distance."
Qingming, the traditional tomb-sweeping day on the Chinese lunar calendar, falls on April 4 this year. Qingming Jie was proclaimed a Chinese national holiday in 2008. It is a time for remembering loved ones who have departed (去世). People visit their ancestors’ graves to sweep away the dirt and get rid of any weeds. They also leave offerings (祭品) of food and flowers, and burn incense (香) and paper money. Chinese tombs are usually built in the woods or on mountains, far from the city. It is believed that an area that faces south, with many pine trees, is a proper place for a tomb. People believe such a place will make the ancestors happy, and in return, they will look after the living family.
Nowadays, more and more residents are choosing environmental-friendly ways to spend the holiday such as flower sacrifices and memorial ceremonies on the Internet or at home. As one of the traditional ways to celebrate Tomb-sweeping Day – burning paper or incense – isn't exactly good for air quality.
In contrast to the sadness of the tomb sweepers, people also enjoy hope of Spring on this day. The Qingming Festival is a time when the sun shines brightly, the trees and grass become green and nature is again lively. Since ancient times, people have followed the custom of Spring outings. At this time tourists are everywhere.
Many people fly kites on Tomb Sweeping Day. They are usually made from a bamboo crossbow with coloured paper. The kite vibrates and buzzes as it rises into the sky, counterbalanced by its tail. Large kites can be as broad as three metres across, with a tail of six to ten metres. Most kites have a rectangular shape, and many have patterns of crabs, centipedes, butterflies, dragonflies, or Chinese characters such as "good fortune" or "long life". (361words)
小題1:What’s the main idea of the second paragraph?
A.The cultural difference between the east and the west.
B.The traditional customs on tomb-sweeping day.
C.Various ways to care for the dead in the world.
D.Qingming Festival
小題2:All of the following practices are mentioned on tomb-sweeping day EXCEPT_____ .
A.Weeping over the passed-away.
B.Flying kites made from bamboo and paper

小題3:Which of the following is correct according to passage?
A.Du Mu ,the well-known poet in Song Dynasty wrote a poem about Qing Ming.
B.Qingming Festival used to be a Chinese national holiday.
C.People have the custom of flying kites on Qing Ming.
D.Those whose ancestors were buried in proper places will have a bright future.
小題4:The writer write the passage in order to____________ .

It may seem to be a hard task to trace back the history of rap music, though you often see the informal music associated with highly informal dance style. As far as the origin of rap music is concerned, most people agree that it is from Afro-American and Latino Street culture of New York City. Not only in this city but in the surrounding areas there is the influence of African people and their culture.
Rap is a vocal (口頭的) style in which the performer speaks rhythmically and in rhyme, generally to a beat. The term of rap music is the same with hip-hop music typically-consisting of a rhythmic vocal style called rap. If we see it carefully, then we will definitely notice that the music usually is sung at higher pitches (調(diào)). Most of the time rap music is associated with chorus. Though rap music was primarily an American music style with African influence over its music and lyrics, recently it has been spread to almost the entire world.
There is hardly any country or nation where rap music cannot be seen in some form or another, and it is one of the most popular music styles among the youngsters. However, when it comes to its history, it is believed that hip-hop or rap music started in the early 1970s,and gained much popularity throughout the world during the late 1970s and early 1980s.
The history of rap music and hip-hop music is full of controversies (爭(zhēng)議) and bans, as the lyrics sometimes relate to drugs and crime; even most famous pop stars and hip-hop musicians and singers were found to be associated with the controversies in their life. For that reason, no matter how popular this music style was or still is, it has always had a bad reputation in the eyes of mainstream society.
小題1:The passage is mainly about _____.
A.when rap music started B.how rap music develops
C.what rap music is like D.why rap music is popular
小題2:The characteristics of rap music are _____.
A.solo, rhymes,beats and pops

C.the youngsters all over the world
D.the young people in the US

The porter(行李搬運(yùn)工) brings your bags to your room and helpfully explains all you want to know.Then he points to the phone and says:“If there’s anything else you need, just call.”All this time you have been thinking of one thing:“How much should I tip(付小費(fèi))him?” To make your next trip a little easier, here’s guide to tipping across some Asian countries.
Bangkok(曼谷)
In general, the more westernized the place is, the more likely you will be expected to leave a tip.Some top-end restaurants will add a 10% service charge to the bill.If not, waiters will appreciate your tacking on(附加)the 10% yourself.However, if you’re eating at a lower-end restaurant, a tip is not necessary.If you’re staying at one of Bangkok’s many five-star hotels, expect to tip the porter 20 to 50 baht(泰國(guó)貨幣單位),depending on how many bags you have.Taxis are now metered in Bangkok.Local custom is to round up(湊整數(shù))the fare to the nearest five baht.
Hong Kong
Tipping is customary in this money-mad metropolis(大都市).Most restaurants add a 10% service charge to the bill, but the extra money often ends up in the pocket of the owner. If the service is good, add another 10% to the bill, up to HKMYMl00 in an especially nice restaurant.For HK MYM10 hotel porters should do it at all but the nicest hotels where a new HKMYM20 bill may be more acceptable.When in a taxi, round up to the nearest dollar.
Kuala Lumpur(吉隆坡)
Tipping in Malaysia is limited to the expensive westernized hotels, which often add a 10% service charge to your meal or hotel room.If you are at a hotel restaurant, expect a 10% service charge.
But at local restaurants, there’s no need to add a tip. At five-star hotels, one or two ringgit(馬來(lái)西亞貨幣單位)will satisfy a porter. At lower-end buildings don’t feel you have to tip Like Bangkok, many taxis are now metered so you can just round up to the nearest ringgit.
Seoul
Tipping is not part of Korean culture, although it has become a matter of course in international hotels where a 10% service charge is often added.If you’re at a Korean barbecue joint(燒烤處), there’s no need to add anything extra.But a nice Italian restaurant may require a 10% contribution.
If you’re at a top-end hotel, so expect to pay 500~l,000 won per bag.Taxi drivers don’t accept a tip.Keep the change for yourself.
小題1:Which of the following is NOT the unit of money?.
A.ChargeB.BahtC.WonD.Ringgit
小題2:In which of the following cities is it unnecessary to tip the taxi-drivers?
A.BangkokB.HongkongC.Kuala LumpurD.Seoul
小題3:If you stay at a five-star hotel in Kuala Lumpur, how much will you pay the porter at least?
A.10% of service chargeB.Three ringgitC.Half a ringgitD.One ringgit
小題4:The writer seems

Many English learners have difficulty deciding what kind of English accent they want to have. A US accent, perhaps modeled on the way a Hollywood star speaks? Or maybe you want to imitate(模仿) the British accent of a BBC news reader?
Young British people find the US accent attractive while young US people like a British accent. Especially when the person speaking is of the opposite sex(異性)! Let’s listen to what they have to say.
Stephen Yang, 17, from London, UK
A US accent is cute, especially when a girl speaks it. Whether it’s Jessia Alba speaking or the girl- next-door, the way US girls speak has a sweet tingle that is really sassy(時(shí)髦). A girl from Texas recently moved into our neighborhood. Her Texan twang(鼻音) had all the boys here on their knees within seconds of meeting her
To me, accents reflect the attitudes, characteristics and lifestyles of the people.
Jennifer Sun, 16, from New Jersey, US
From watching English actors like Daniel Radcliffe, my friends and I have developed a soft spot for British men.Some are attracted to the qualities of English males, while others admire their sense of style.
Everyone, however, agrees that the most appealing aspect of an English man is his accent. For example, many American girls watch Harry Potter movies over and over again just to listen to the actors speak.
The English accent seems almost like art.
小題1:In Stephen Yang’s opinion, accents just show__________.
A.the beauty of the language
B.how the language is spoken
